Simon Martin Whips & Leathercraft

Simon Martin Whips and Leathercraft is a one-of-a-kind shop and a great place for the whole family. Nowhere else in Tasmania will you be able to see Australian Stockwhips and Saddles made right under the one roof. Enjoy making your own leather coaster or keyring at the "Kids Bench" or peak through "The Homestead Kitchen" window to see where they make their own leathercare products. Leatherwork products communicate culture and heritage. They can be functional and decorative and bring forth emotion as you draw in their smell and feel their quality under your fingertips. Simon, along with his wife Sophie, has built a team of craftsmen and a range of leather products that people come from all over the world to buy. There is a large collection of whips from around the world and you can watch their master craftsmen at work. The retail shop offers a huge range of products which includes well known Australian brands like Akubra & RM Williams. Don't miss this unique experience while in Tasmania. Spreyton is just over one hour's drive (103 kilometres/64 miles) from Launceston and 15 minutes from the Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal in Devonport.
